Abstract

In this paper, we consider the modified generalization of the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm in the d-level (qudits) quantum system to determine the types of the function f (constant or linear) that had been used. A comparison of the efficiency between the quantum algorithm and the classical case have been given. In addition, the quantum key distribution protocol based on the algorithm is established to show the contribution of our work to the improvement in the detecting the Eve’s attack that occurs in the protocol based on the original Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm.
